Then you  have to write your own notification scripts. "mail" used in the 
sample notification scripts shipped with nagios does not allow setting 
the from address.

Call sendmail directly using it -f option (but it will add an 
X-Authentication warning header).
Perl's Mail::Sendmail or other modules may be useful.
